Special Onion-Garlic Chicken Gravy

Special Onion-Garlic Chicken Gravy
Today's recipe is also from my dear neighbor. She used to make this gravy with Nei Choru (Ghee Rice) and my kid is a great fan of this combo. Her way of cooking will be entirely different and hence its taste too.. The recipe follows..
